Nutritionist Day

Nutritionist Day puts the study of food and nutrition in the spotlight. It recognizes people who help explain eating habits and encourages a more thoughtful conversation about everyday meals, evidence and the promises attached to food trends.

How it is celebrated: practitioners and educational projects may host talks, discussions or public sessions about nutrition. There is no universal ritual; asking questions and taking a closer look at familiar food habits fit the spirit of the occasion.

Nutrition science goes beyond identifying what a food contains. It also examines how the body obtains and uses nutrients—the plate is only the starting point.
